Super Junior [SM Entertainment]

Super Junior grabbed the No. 1 spot with their latest dance tune on Mnet's music program last night, proving their successful return to the local music scene.

On last evening’s “M! CountDown,” Super Junior received their first award with "Sexy, Free & Single" after fierce competition for first place against SISTAR and 2NE1.

"I was happy just with the fact that we released our sixth album and it's grateful to be receiving a trophy for it. I'd like to share this joy with all the members and before anything, I want to express Super Junior's appreciation to the E.L.F [the official name of Super Junior's fan club]. We love you," Kyuhyun said, after their triumph on Mnet just a week after staging the first comeback performance on the same show.

Super Junior staged their encore performance to title tune of their sixth full-length album of the same name with fellow SM Entertainment labelmate, f(x).

Including the aforementioned artists, Lena Park, Afterschool, SISTAR, ZE:A, Juniel, M.I.B and 2PM’s Wooyoung also appeared on the show.

Meanwhile, Super Junior recently stretched their record on Taiwan's KKBOX's Korean Top 100 Singles Chart with "Sexy, Free & Single."

The "Sorry, Sorry" singers are cementing themselves as the most popular K-pop acts in Taiwan, now spending 110 straight weeks atop the coveted music chart.

Before dropping the new electronic tune on July 4, the boys' “BONAMANA” and "Mr. Simple" ruled the ranking list for 64 and 46 consecutive weeks respectively, since June 2010.
